Advent - Day Twenty Five
We loved the above so much we just had to make it our Christmas Card to you. Merry Christmas and enjoy the Holidays. We hope Santa brings you everything on your list and more whilst you enjoy some quality time with all of your family! We will post before the New Year and have lots of interesting pieces up our sleeves for 2009!
Christmas dinner South African style
Merry Christmas friends! Hope you are having a wonderful time with your families and loved ones. We had a lovely evening with my family last night and of course I had to take a few photos to share with you. My youngest sister and I decorated the table and as you can see it's very much a South African setting, not a drop of snow to be seen! My other sister decorated the Christmas tree, doesn't it look fabulous? Wishing you all an equally fabulous time!

Advent - Day Twenty Four
I have only recently fallen head over heels with the Visvim brand but the more I see the deeper my love gets...the Virgil boot and FBT Shaman in this brown kangaroo leather are the best yet. If I had any Christmas shopping to do either of these would be my footwear of choice...I would just have to go out and buy them first...Happy Christmas Eve to one and all.
Almost there!
Are you as eager as this pup below?! Patiently waiting for either Christmas eve or Christmas day to celebrate with your families? We are having a lovely Christmas dinner with my family tonight and then a Christmas lunch with my boyfriend's family tomorrow. I'm looking forward to lots of laughs and happy memories and no doubt lots of delicious food and wine! What have you got planned? When do you celebrate? Are you excited yet?!

Don't you just love this photo above with the magical hearts? Taken by the talented Georgianna Lane, pop over for more beautiful photos of her home all decorated for the season. Georgianna's home looks like it's straight out of a Christmas shoot, so gorgeous!
And then we have some photos from two Capetonian readers just for fun! I absolutely love Micky's Christmas tree, totally different to Georgianna's with a more African feel to it! And lastly some tasty looking cookies by Emma, I always love seeing people get creative in the kitchen! Wishing you all a happy and festive day, blessings to you!
Advent - Day Twenty Three
As always the last few days before the big day move along at a headache inducing speed, my to-do list today is just too long as I pack my bag and head back to the seaside for Christmas. Being at home at Christmas guarantees the following: enough food to feed an army and enough drink to inebriate one as well, the odd argument and that the whole thing will be documented by a room full of photographers... I doubt very much that anyone will have a bag as beautiful as this one.
Canon invited the famous Japanese fashion designer Mihara Yasuhiro to design a classic yet stylish (and most importantly practical camera) case for the newly launched PowerShot G10 (which is available in limited quantities in Hong Kong)....Father Christmas if it's not too late I would like both of these please...I've been a good boy (on the most part) this year.
